Couple of reasons:
  1. Sells a call better
  2. At the major D-I and NBA level, they're using PTS so the clock's stopping automatically on the whistle
  3. In reality, the clock is not being stopped with the hand signal but on the sound of the whistle.

Chaos isn't a pit. Chaos is a ladder. Many who try to climb it fail and never get to try again. The fall breaks them. And some, given a chance to climb, they refuse. They cling to the realm, or the gods, or love. Illusions.

Only the ladder is real. The climb is all there is.
